D-VXR-OE-23 Exam Dumps : Dell VxRail Operate 2023

The deployment architecture used for these clusters, where there is only one vSphere Distributed Switch object for both clusters in vCenter, is "External vCenter Server with external DNS." This setup allows for centralized management of multiple clusters and network resources using a single vSphere Distributed Switch, facilitated by an external vCenter Server and DNS configuration.
